What a wonderful shot. I have one similar but in beautiful colours at sunset. It's strange to see such a contrast.

Regarding the ice, they did say they have never seen it before......

I think it must be from Western end of Schnells Ridge looking back at Scotts Peak etc

Not from Schnells - for that view see 2nd photo in http://bushwalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=3418

Yes stu
I have been there 3 times (must be a favourite spot for an interstater) and always love the setting.
This was from the small rocky outcrop just below the hut which is great for all around views.
And yes - there was some zoom in this.

I took a lot of shots from High Camp that afternoon - you might remember this one (2nd photo) - http://bushwalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=774

My photos of the Hippo don't look like this one - but the rock is definitely Southern Highlands
Perhaps this is approaching Mt Wylly with Victoria-Cross behind?

Ah I think your right Eggs. I just looked at it very quickly and saw the rock similar to hill3 and thought VC was LaPerouse.
Well done.

stu's taking his time - but I have compared a photo of Adamsons from the Calf (Step-by-step's, not mine) and the profile matches exactly.

And now I am sure you can post the next one Mark - see http://www.wildtiger.biz/?tracknotes&id=66 :lol:

Think Mark's right, returning from Mesa along the plateau to The Calf

Thanks Stuart. Uncanny how similar to the Southern Ranges that looks.
Ok next one.

Would this be from your Mt Shaula trip? The picture being taken from the Arthur Plains

Nope. This was on a daywalk, though it was borderline overnighter.....

That sounds like a trip to Weld, but it doesn't look like Weld to me

It looks like the plains to the east of mt Leillateah looking towards the southern ranges, if I'm right someone else can go as I'm going on a three day walk this weekend.
It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is much better at the top.

Ah yes I think you may be right Bap, I have heard of this little adventure up to Leilateah, a little scrubby if I recall correctly. A very long day walk

It looks a lot like Pokana Peak in the background, with Centre Star to the right, from the Stepped Hills somewhere?
